Claim Welcome Bonus🇬🇧 Cameron Norrie: form and statistics
The underdog who’s been beating the odds at Roland Garros in 2025 is Cameron Norrie. The 29-year-old Brit is ranked at No. 81, has a 15-12 record this year, and is 11-6 on clay. He reached the R16 in Paris for the first time ever, another historic development in British tennis alongside Jack Draper's run (The Standard, May 31). His gritty form has just added to the legends: four victories out of five matches, including a 6-4, 6-3, 7-6(5) victory for the upset over Jacob Fearnley on May 31 after he actually ended up winning 54.5% of total points amidst a chaotic atmosphere of pyrotechnics (BBC Sport, May 31). Norrie's best results so far have been the semifinal in Geneva, where he fell to Djokovic in three sets; plenty of social media calls it 'inspiring' when it comes to his run, especially following the first-round shocker against Daniil Medvedev (The Guardian, May 27). Will Norrie be able to carry that momentum against the Serbian superstar?
🇷🇸 Novak Djokovic: form and statistics
Novak Djokovic is considered a clay-court accelerator in Paris. At 38 years old and ranked No. 6, he has put together a 25-5 record in 2025, with 10 wins and 3 losses on clay courts. A three-time French Open champion, he was chasing his 100th Roland Garros victory after beating Filip Misolic 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 on May 31 in a match in which he broke serve four times and won 77% of his first-serve points (Outlook India, May 31). His 2025 season had the Geneva Open title, his 100th trophy, but his form shows cracks with early exits in Middle East events and a forfeited semifinal at the Australian Open (Khel Now, June 1). Social media was filled with admiration for his "extraordinary flexibility" at 38, yet some fans attributed forehand errors as a potential downside (DjokovicUk on X, May 31). Can Djokovic remain while Norrie's persistence is tested?
